Glass Information

Glass Cleaning

Only glass approved by CFM Specialty Home Products should be used on this fireplace.

The use of any non-approved replacement glass will void all product warranties.

Care must be taken to avoid breakage of the glass.

Do not operate appliance with glass front removed, cracked or broken.

A replacement glass frame assembly (complete with gasket) is available through your Vermont Castings, Majestic Products dealer and should only be installed by a licensed qualified service person.

Glass Frame Assembly Removal

1.Turn the fireplace OFF (including the pilot).

2.If the unit has been operating allow time for the components to cool.

3.Using a Phillips screwdriver, unfasten two (2) screws located at the top of the glass frame. (Fig. 35)

4.Tilt the glass frame at the top away from the unit. Lift it carefully off the bottom door track and set on padded surface.

It is necessary to periodically clean the glass. During start-up, condensation, which is normal, forms on the inside of the glass. This condensation causes lint, dust and other airborne particles to cling to the glass surface.

Also initial paint curing may deposit a slight film on the glass. It is therefore recommended the glass be cleaned two or three times with a non-ammonia based household cleaner and warm water (gas fireplace glass cleaner is recommended) within the first few weeks of operation.

After the initial cleaning process the glass should be cleaned two or three times during each operating season depending on the environment in the house.

Clean the glass after the first two weeks of operation.
